It is film that makes teeth dingy-that viscous film you feel. It clings to teeth, enters crevices and stays. Food stains dis- color it, then it forms thin cloudy coats. Tartar is based on film.

The ordinary tooth paste does not end film. So most teeth, in the old days, were more or less discolored

Film also holds food substance which ferments and forms acid. It holds the sold

Glisten everywhere today

in contact with the teeth to cause décay, Germs breed by millions in it. They, with tartar, are the chief cause of pyorrhen.

Thus most tooth troubles are now traced to film. Under old methods, they were con stantly increasing. The most careful people rarely escaped.

Two combatants now Dental science, after long research; has found two film combatants. One acts to curdle film, one to remove it Able authori- tles have amply proved their efficiency. Now leading dentists the world over are urging their daily use.

A new tooth paste has been created, based on modern research. It brings five effects now considered essential It avoids several old mistake.

This tooth panto is called Pepsodent. And those two great film combatanta are embodied in it.

The film on torth of men who smoke becomes especially discolored. But note how men's teeth glisten nowadayi. Note how men and women, when they smile, show pretty teeth. Those are Pepandent effects, now attained by millions.
